High Impact: Infrared Imaging for Temperature Measurement
With coronavirus and COVID-19 dominating all media outlets, it is increasingly difficult to imagine what life was like prior to this burgeoning crisis. What is not difficult to envision are the most common symptoms, with cough and fever being the most prevalent according to available data. A cough can be seen and heard but what about increased body temperature? That is a different matter entirely. In the quest to identify, treat, and eliminate the spread of the virus, fever detection and screening has been all the rage at airports, transportation hubs, and hospitals around the world. As a result, many facilities have implemented thermal imaging technology assist in this endeavor. It is fast, painless, and can reduce contact with the individual being tested, making it a very attractive option in these challenging times.
